FEATHERSTONE HOUSE - Historical Australian Themes
Featherstone House is one of a number of houses built in the City of Banyule by prominent architects, such as Robin Boyd, in the 20th century. The house is one of a number of buildings in the City of Banyule which has received recognition from the Royal Australian Institute of Architects awards. Boyd won a Citation in the R.A.I.A. (Victoria) Awards in 1972 for this house, four years after its design. The skillion roofed form was popularised by architects such as Frank Dixon, Mockridge, Stahle and Mitchell, as well as Boyd himself, in the early 1950s.
